This is also interesting for me.
I travelled twice from Vilnius to Prague and Warszaw and both times weren't successful. Having in mind, that my girl's progesterone level changes from 5 to 30 in two days (weeks "growing" till reaches 5, then sudden jump), it is not so easy to be at the male in time. This time she was mated with a male, who came to our home and - tadaaaaam - this time it is a success
But it is not so easy to find a male, who will come to your place, so I am really seriously thinking that for her next litter I would like to try AI... I know it is popular and works well with many breeds, why CzW should be an exception?
